Engaging the Challenge Together
Your Gift Makes a Difference
Educating students for leadership speaks directly to a compelling societal need. And no institution is better poised to answer this need than Agnes Scott College. Thanks to the generous support of alumnae and friends like you, Agnes Scott is able to provide strong financial aid packages, world-class teaching and innovative programming that helps bright and eager young women develop the skills and the confidence to transform our world.
As Agnes Scott College continues to navigate the unforeseen challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, educating our students to become capable leaders, ready to take on the world’s most persistent and systemic challenges has become even more urgent. The college’s enduring mission remains not just relevant today, but critical given the unprecedented times we are enduring.
With additional costs in response to the consequences of the pandemic, as well as the loss of auxiliary and room and board revenue, now more than ever, gifts to the college’s most urgent funding priorities are vital to responding effectively to the present challenges we face and sustaining the college’s future. Your generous support makes an immediate impact on the education that our faculty and staff provide to students and enable the president to direct funding to where it is needed most.
Supporting Students
For many of our current and future students, the prospect of pursuing and completing an Agnes Scott education is dimming due to increasing financial constraints. With more than 40 percent of Agnes Scott students being eligible for Pell Grants, we are committed to making our transformational education experience accessible to highly talented students who need financial assistance to attain it. Through gifts to the Student Scholarships Fund and the Student Emergency Fund, you're helping keep an Agnes Scott education accessible and affordable. This includes:
- Scholarships
- Career Development & Professional Success
- Global Journeys
- Athletics
